Daily Thoughts and Prayers for Our Beloved Dead for November -- Month of the Poor Souls

Twenty-seventh Day

Every morning let us commend the faithful departed to the powerful intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of the Poor Souls in Purgatory. As her slaves of love, let us then strive to accept without a murmur of complaint whatever crosses and contradictions that God sends to us. We must also faithfully offer through her all of our prayers and good works. Thus, we will enable this gracious Queen to magnify the effect of our humble offerings in behalf of the Poor Souls suffering in Purgatory.

Our Father, Three Hail Marys, Gloria, De Profundis.

Most merciful Jesus, by the merits of Thy Holy Childhood, hasten to deliver from the pains of Purgatory the souls suffering there, particularly the soul longest in paying the debt exacted for his earthly transgressions. Graciously take him today to Paradise that he may join the heavenly choir in praising Thee, and will intercede for me in the hour of need. Amen.
